This has been my favorite Bridgerton book so far!! And maybe that’s partially because I just LOVE fairytale retellings, especially Cinderella ones (even though Disney’s animated Cinderella is not my favorite in the least). But also cause Benedict is officially my favorite (in the books atleast), book Anthony & Colin were very lacking, I love them in the show, but their book personalities had a lot of… I guess faults, that I was not a fan of. But Benedict… I don’t know what it is…but Benedict just stole my heart! 

Especially the moment he realized he wanted to marry Sophie despite him thinking she was just a maid. He proved to be sweet & caring, and willing to say fuck society for this girl that he just couldn’t help but love!! It’s inspiring, and we all deserve a Benedict Bridgerton! 💜

An entertaining, lighthearted feel-good romance.  Great for a vacation or when you don't have energy or time to pay close attention to plot developments, dialog, etc.

I spent barely two days on this book, I literally couldn't put it down. I'd read in bed, at work, while eating, I just couldn't stop.
There's a reason retellings work. A hundred year old formula, it still has its kick.
I adored Sophie, I loved Benedict, their story was beautiful and I ate it up.
Also, the plot was thicker than I expected, which I quite enjoyed.
The epilogues might be the best to date too, Posy deserves everything good in this world.
And on to the next we go, I'm dying to see how Colin fixes his major screw-up now.
